Abstract

Unfortunately, mainly due to stigma, mental illness is often associated with violent behavior. For this reason, risk assessment in forensic psychiatry increasingly relies on instruments developed for this purpose. Through standardized instruments, whether clinical or systematized, the assessment is carried out in order to balance the relationship between psychiatric disorder and violent behavior. This task is the responsibility of the forensic psychiatrist, who works directly at the interface between psychiatry and law. To talk about the theme "Risk assessment in forensic psychiatry", the ABPTV program welcomes doctors José Brasileiro, Milena França and Paulo Repsold.
